Chapter 50 Liu Yi on Zhuge
"Bo Yuan?" Looking at Zhuge Liang's letter silently, at the end, Liu Yi couldn't help but smile and shook his head, throwing the bamboo paper into the brazier beside him.
"Sir, what, Bo Yuan?" Deng Ai sat aside and looked at Liu Yi curiously.
"My name is given by an elder." At this point, Liu Yi suddenly felt something was wrong. Although Zhuge Liang saw through his thoughts, secretly supported him, and even helped him with the word "name", is this guy trying to take advantage of him?
Generally speaking, only respectable elders can be raised by virtue. However, Liu Yi, a craftsman, had no relatives or reasons in Jingzhou, so where did the elders come from? As for Mr. Pang De and Mr. Shui Jing, they are respectable, but Zhuge Liang was not able to ask for help with his calligraphy.
Liu Boyuan? He sounded a little old-fashioned, but no matter what, Zhuge Liang had done a lot of help. It’s not that he couldn’t afford to take the word “speak”, but that if he really wanted to be sophisticated, someone would definitely find the source. Since Zhuge Liang had brought it up for himself, the problem of the aftermath could naturally be over.
Table words?
Deng Ai looked at Liu Yi with some envy. His father seemed to have prepared the word "大" for him, but his mother insisted on waiting until he could use it. Although the young Deng Ai didn't quite understand the meaning of the word "大", he always felt that it was so handsome. When he introduced himself to others, he would say: "Next, Xinye, Deng Ai, the word "大" and so on!"
It feels like that, even people will become more confident.
"Sir, you said, teacher, why, why, don't he, serve, Cao Gong, and choose, Liu, Uncle Emperor?" Deng Ai sat aside and watched Liu Yi making a feather fan, and suddenly asked curiously.
"Why did you suddenly ask this?" Liu Yi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at Deng Ai in surprise. He was not surprised by the question itself, but by why the young Deng Ai had this idea?
"No, sir, are you talking about it? Cao Gong is very powerful. This time, going south to Jingzhou may not be, but as a result, most of the world will belong to Cao Gong, Liu, the emperor's uncle, it seems..." Deng Ai said in the end, a little didn't know what to say. After all, he was a disciple of Zhuge Liang. Since Zhuge Liang chose Liu Bei, Liu Bei naturally had his strength, but it seemed that Cao Cao was a better choice.
"Being able to understand this means that you have the potential to become a general." Liu Yi looked at the semi-finished feather fan in his hand and smiled: "Kong Ming probably had thought about it, but one thing is that Uncle Liu is sincere enough. On the other hand, although Cao Gong is powerful, his power is not enough to sweep the world. This big river is a difficult problem in front of him. Kong Ming is afraid that he can see Cao Gong's weakness. Otherwise, if he really wants to defeat him, he will not agree not to mention three visits, even if Uncle Liu invites him ten times."
Three visits to the thatched cottage are now considered a temporary talk in Jingzhou, but if you change to someone else, can you ask Zhuge Liang to call him?
"There is, third?" Deng Ai looked at Liu Yi curiously.
"Yes, this third is Kong Ming's own problem." Liu Yi thought for a moment, shook his head and smiled, "He is a talented person, a talented person, especially a young man who must be arrogant and arrogant. How can he be content with others? Cao Gong is now surrounded by counselors, Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Zhong Yao, and Jia Xu, all have extraordinary talents. No matter how talented Kong Ming is, if he serves Cao, he can only start from the grassroots level and climb to a high position step by step, and may not be able to be valued by Cao Gong. Cao Gong gets Kong Ming is the icing on the cake, while Liu Huangshu gets Kong Ming is like a fish in water."
Sima Yi is an example. Is Sima Yi not very capable? It must be high, and Cao Cao also knows that Sima Yi is capable, but Sima Yi did not make it through in his lifetime. It was only after Cao Pi took office that he became a powerful minister who could control Cao Wei step by step.
In fact, if you look closely at Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, there are actually many similarities and they also have extremely high abilities. Does it have a background? Sima Yi is taller, but he is only born in a place like Xuchang where the imperial power is lost. The Sima family's status has to be even more tightly clamped.
It was the different environment that created different encounters between the two. Zhuge Liang came out and almost reached the peak of his life. Sima Yi was cautious all the way, walking on thin ice, which also created Sima Yi's strong tolerance, and eventually exhausted Zhuge Liang, laying a huge foundation and connections for the future Jin State. Zhuge Liang's life was too smooth and he could deal with it calmly in good times, but his performance in adversity was actually not as good as Sima Yi.
In the past, Liu Yi didn't pay much attention to these things, so he could just watch the excitement when watching the Three Kingdoms. But after this era, Liu Yi would often think about future things and why some characters who left a lot of pen in history would have such an ending.
For example, Zhuge Liang, ordinary people say that Zhuge Liang refused to delegate power and exhausted himself to death. Not only did he shorten his life, but he also defeated the foundation of Shu Han. But in fact, the problem that ordinary people can think of is as smart as Zhuge Liang, how could he not know that Zhuge Liang did not know that Zhuge Liang could not use people. On the contrary, in the early and even mid-term, Zhuge Liang was quite skilled in using people and was also very capable of using people.
The thing that people talk about most is that they live in peace and flat roads. Zhuge Liang of that period could give his subordinates full trust instead of doing everything himself.
As for why I would do everything myself later, there is a key point here, that is, Ma Su lost Jieting.
When he sent Ma Su to guard Jieting, Zhuge Liang had full trust in himself and Ma Su. He even thought that Ma Su lacked practical experience and sent Wang Ping as his deputy general.
But unfortunately, Zhuge Liang failed to explain clearly, so when Ma Su and Wang Ping had differences of opinions, Ma Su, as the main general, naturally ignored Wang Ping's ridiculous "wrong".
In this matter, the person who was wrong was not Ma Su, but Zhuge Liang. Since he knew that Ma Su was not experienced in practical combat, he still handed over such an important position as Jieting to Ma Su.
It was Ma Su that made Zhuge Liang doubt himself and worried about his subordinates' abilities, so he began to embark on the road of no return to his dedication to his death.
However, he was just judging from the perspective of later generations, but he felt that this was the difference between him and Sima Yi. If Sima Yi was in Zhuge Liang's position, he would not have doubts about himself from a mistake like Zhuge Liang. After all, saints have times when they make mistakes, and everyone is a mortal, who has not made any mistakes?
It is really hard to measure whether Zhuge Liang’s choice is right or wrong.
"Then, sir, think, teacher, is right?" Deng Ai's tone was a bit proud. After all, from the literal meaning, Liu Yi was praising Zhuge Liang.
"Everyone has a standard for measuring right and wrong. This varies from person to person. You can experience it slowly in the future." Liu Yi stretched out his hand and touched Deng Ai's head. Even if he was precocious and had not experienced it, it was difficult to understand the profound meaning of his words.
